heres a doom map with unique displacement mapping and texturing (3 days work).... I havent got so far yet apart from the small little detail in the centre, but im wondering what the hell this little beast is gonna look like once I take it to the finish.

More screenshots coming up as I slowly progress painting on it and planting csg shapes into the displacement maps! Why green? I guess its my favorite colour for a transformer -

ok, so now ive got to the point where ive had enough of painting and sculpting uniquely... it just takes too long. So now im going to see if I can get some preprepared displacement maps and textures and apply them in large hits... all you really need is a doom level with displacement mapping, it about finishes off the geometry/detail problem.

ok, so spending time on a smaller area gets you better results, im planning on plotting this wall all over it, see how I go, give me a couple of days tho.

Looks cool. Your technique seems more suitable for organic shapes, though. Any chance of an alien hive infestation in that space station?

thanks! totally, exactly what I think! it would great for some infested space station, be it daemons or aliens. Im improving res now, I just finished looking at RAGE (totally mind blowing...), and mine just looks so low res compared to it, I must fix it.

I updated the resolution, which means going backwards in development and recoding a lot of things... the level is taking a minute to load now tho : P... ok, now im onto plotting premade displacement maps! BACK TO WORK!

thanks for the interest, darksmaster923, this thread is a development run through, ill take it as far as I can, hopefully by the 30th post itll be something special. I never finish what I start either, hopefully I can put a stop to bad habbits!!

to rouncer, if you do not finish projects. try simplifying it down to most basic level. so its easy and possibly enjoyable to do
